Notes

 

I take inspiration from many designs of those great designers, so these parts are remixed and fixed by me to fit my need and I have done some improvements. Hope you like it.

These parts require some screws to attach to Ender 3 V2 and other required components, the list will be given below. Find the components at your nearest local store or click on the link I have given below. Please attention that I am not doing advertising for any websites or stores.

Follow each step with pictures and videos carefully. There is a lot of work to do, so take your time and don't rush it. “Flowing water wears away the stone”.

I will separate each step assembly one by one for easier to work with, and the components included.

If my calculation is correct that you will need to print about 50 cable chains link and chains cover.

And here is the link for the upgrade screen case:

Notice for PSU, mainboard, and Noctua fans cover: Cura setting for grid pattern instruction is in the pictures.

For Noctua fans cover:

  • Wall thickness: 3-5mm; Top/Bottom setting: 0 to all; Higher percentage “Infill density” means more holes, I recommended 60-80%; Infill pattern: Triangles.

For PSU and mainboard cover:

  • Following the setting in the picture if you want the bottom was a grid, or else just printing normally. It just creates a support blocker and modifies its overlaps. And focus on the size of the blocker as equal as in the pictures, the position XYZ set all to 0.
